Should I get aftermarket Brakes?

Should I get aftermarket Brakes?
Questions I have:
Can I get aftermarket rotors and use stock pads/calipers?
How much will a whole new brake set up cost?
Can I get new rotors and calipers/pads without changing the brakelines?
Which are the better brakes, Brembo or Stillen? Is the price on Stillen's website for 2 or 4 wheels?
Thanks, B

If you are interested in the look of cross-drilled rotors then, yes, you can just switch the rotors but don't expect any significant increase in braking performance.

If you're really interested in improving braking ability, the stainless steel brake lines and new brake pads will be the first thing you should do. Everything I've read (from reputable companies building brake systems, not from random org members) suggests that the pads and lines will effect braking most significantly.

From what I have read....The SS brake lines are a waste of money, unless you Road Race. As for upgrading the brakes, I got a set of Performance Friction pads for 32 bucks and turned my rotors. I couldnt be happier. Theses pads dont fade and stop much better than stock. The question is....Will they warp the rotors like the stock pads???
